Default Problems with GSR engine.

Here's the deal. The car doesn't like to run anymore, symptoms.....

Jumpy Tach
Misfires like a big dog
Extremely Rich
Melted the cat

Possible causes........

Faulty injector(s)
Bad distributor
Bad ECU

Tried...........
Different distributor
Different ECU

Going to swap out the cat and go from there.

What I do know.....
Plugs are not fouled
Car ran great for the longest time
A/F gauge read rich for about 2 days.

Any other ideas???

Injectors stuck open? Fuel pressure too high? Plug wires in correct order?

Plug wires in correct order. I was thinking the same thing. Stuck Injector. BUT, if it were a stuck injector, the plugs would be fouled and they're not.

Damm, Hard Rock? You're way off the beaten path. We're staying at Treasure Island. Be there Monday night late. Just in time to get some ZZZZZZZZ's and then wake up and hit SEMA!!

Nick might make it, but as for right now, he can't go. (Base Lockdown)

Derek, Jeremy, Marty and myself will be attending so far.

I'll talk to Nick tonight and see what's up with the BBQ. What day??
